Check the rubber coolant lines running to and from the turbo also. Sometimes they are swollen and will only leak under boost.

i have the turbo water lines in a short loop I.E Jason the guy i bought it from http://www.dsmstyle.com/forums/images/icons/icon8.gif so coolent ratio should be 50/50 I'm down to headgasket or maybe just not enough flow to the radiator

I don't know if I'm reading this wrong, but having the turbo in the loop does not affect the coolant mix. I'm talking about the ratio of coolant to water.

i know that removing the emissions can cause a rough idle but could the it cause my car to over heat because as far s i can tell i have done everything new thermostat water pump headgasket fluids but still running down the road i still over heat and i just cant figure out why
i just got my head back from headwerks with a full gasket kit and everything no change in my problem so im just out of ideas

Have you used any JB crap in radiator? That could cause shitty flow to internals.

Removing the Emissions shouldn't have an effect on temperature. My car doesn't have any of that crap, and the stock gauge has never gotten past the half way mark. Even with a shitty stock radiator, and a single 12" slim fan sitting in traffic on a 95* day.

Just a heads up, my car has seen over 230* and still not gone past the half way point. The stock water temp gauge sucks.
